Summary

Trials of poetry are lyrical episodes presented as an opening dialogue or correspondence on the subject of love. Keywords and white blank pages are symbolic of reflective spaces, inviting to examine and perhaps continue an imaginary compositional journey. Conceptual basis of this work is rooted in an assessment of the value of poetry, and its potential accessibility as a literary genre.

Love verses scattered on pages and voices

This is a difficult one - not expected, sudden and unwished - like love itself - some of earlier verses feel somehow interrupted and yet, when read out aloud - are continuing from previous verse; whole structure feels like a long written song over years, maybe decades and it may take only one minute to one really connect with it. Narration is clearly, immaculately reconstructing an emotional panel of pictures - it looks like everyone had engaged with this work to its best possible output

A wonderful collection of narrative poems

Narrates in a poetic mode feelings, thoughts and memories. Often reflective yet descriptive enough to take you familiar places, evoking sentiments of melancholy and longing. Love is ever present as a symbol of humanity.
Much enjoyable and highly recommended.

A pleasant listen like a short love story

A lovely poetry book with a voice to read it to you out loud, pouring their soul into it.
Loved it from beginning to the end, moving and comforting, definitely recommend it.

A beautiful collection of love poems

There is an aura of love surrounding each and every verse. It felt like an unfinished love story
